Kemi Badenoch stated at a Conservative event that many are hesitant to have families due to financial concerns and the need for government support, stating, 'We need to give people confidence. People are scared to have families.' She acknowledged the struggles potential parents face today, particularly regarding the timing and affordability of children, emphasizing that society must find better ways to support them.
In her initial comments, Kemi Badenoch argued that statutory maternity pay is overly burdened by tax implications and described support systems as excessive, asserting, 'Tax comes from people who are working: we're taking from one group of people and giving to another.'
